im not sure,i just thought we should start with a story first. but thats okay, we don't have to. we can start or discuss anything. so, do you have any ideas or did you just want to ask that question?

That's usually where dream games come from.

Do you have any prior experience with programming/art/music? What part of the game would you be making? P.S. I am not offering to collaborate with you, i just want you to think rationally about this.

I'm just saying...its a game, so it seems like you would start with gameplay and themes.

oh well you kind of need to have something to offer if you want to collaborate with someone
otherwise the work is going to be fairly one sided
if you DID have someone to collaborate with what would you bring to the table
etc

that's pretty awesome of you. so many people are of the mentality "*scoff* don't waste my time." that's really admirable. really.

But seriously, pm me. we can skype and get a shared dropbox set up.

there's absolutely nothing wrong with beginning a game with the story, indies prolly shouldn't prescribe how to make games to other indies on that level, because the seed of an idea is different for each individual. sometimes you might just start a game with an image or a song or a sentence, anything can give you ideas to make a game

If you are looking for a quick, fun, down and dirty game with little time investment, I would say check flashgamelicense.com There are plenty of pixelated programmers pounding out products of peculiar playability at a prolific pace with purported profits.
